Landy, 21, had plans to attend a barbecue at his parents Chesterfield Township home later evening, but never showed up.

His body was found in the burned-out house on Maddelein Street in Detroit four days later.

Prosecutors said Taylor and co-defendant Ihab Masalmani randomly carjacked Landry at Quiznos restaurant, drove him to the empty house, used his bank cards to withdraw money at a gas station and then executed him.

The Michigan appeals court also ruled Masalmani is entitled to a new hearing.
